[PATCH 1/2] qemu: add a max_core setting to qemu.conf for core dump size

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Currently the QEMU processes inherit their core dump rlimit
from libvirtd, which is really suboptimal. This change allows
their limit to be directly controlled from qemu.conf instead.
